What's the point of making me wait a year if I declined a bid? Especially when phi sig needs lots of new members?

I mean I feel like the rule is there to protect the bottom tier sororities. Panhellenic rules should protect us freshmen as much if not more.

I think it's to keep girls from accepting bids then immediately dropping out- that rule gives the girls rushing a certain amount of accountability. By accepting a bid then dropping you're potentially taking a bid away from somebody who may have actually wanted it. Also accepting a bid then dropping immediately is kind of disrespectful to the sorority that was more than willing to take you in.

Except I'm not taking a bid away from anyone since everyone is guaranteed and got a bid. Plus it's not like I took a bid away from a top sorority. We're talking bottom tier here.

Yes, but if a girl had (completely hypothetically), AOPi, Tri Delt, and Chi O in her pref, and ranked it in that order, and you ended up getting AOPi, that would take an AOPi bid away from someone who wanted it, bumping her down to her second or third choice. Now that girl might be fine with Tri Delt or Chi O but if she had her heart set on AOPi that would really suck and you taking it and dropping immediately without giving them more than a couple hours of your time is pretty disrespectful.

Also tiers mean literally nothing. If you say the words "top tier sorority" to anyone older than a sophomore you're immediately discredited. It's about where you fit, not what your pledge class looks like.

Not everyone got a bid. So selfish of you.

I had three for preference. Two were acceptable. One I cut in every single round. Yet that's still the one I got. So I did not take a bid from anyone. And I did spend 4 rounds trying to give them a chance.

i got into a "bottom tier" sorority and they were my last choice for all 4 rounds of recruitment. I was about to quit then gave them another chance and I already love them.

That's awesome it worked for you. For me, I know out of 15 flavors of Jelly Belly's, I don't like coconut and no matter how many times I try coconut I'm still not going to like it.

After reading all of this through, you sound like a huge brat. Show some grace.

And your point? That may be the case but how does it change your situation at all? It doesn't matter one bit if you like or love one group unless we love you back. It's not up to you, we hold 99% of the cards. You can't make a group of girls select you! So your theory may be true, but it makes not one bit of difference in your case. You are still in the same situation.
